Who knew fishing fabrics could be so fabulous? Unlikely sport honored by textile designers

The idea of inviting the Spoonflower design community to have a go at designing fabrics around the sport of fishing struck us as quirky fun when we came up with it as a topic a few weeks ago, but the results are actually astonishing. There are a whole school of lovely fabrics among the 204 entries in this week's contest, even if I'm not entirely sure what they'll be used to make. [Sleeping bag liners, maybe? Boxers?] This turned out to be a terrific contest, so be sure to cast a line, er... vote!
